Ashley & Bond : Coastal Romance at Scripps

Our job is oh-so-much easier when a couple creates consistency between their theme, decor and venue. A & B chose the perfect coastal theme for their Scripps Seaside Forum Affair and we could not have been happier to be a part of it!

A chose a color palette of soft ivory, cream and blush tones paired with mint and organic, textured beach elements. We loved pairing delicate lace and glass elements with rough, rustic burlap and wood.

The couple was married under our deep wood stained canopy A-symmetrically draped in a sheer silk. Sandblasted wood was attached to the canopy accented with soft blooms.

The reception room was positively GLOWING with candlelight and romance! We paired our burlap and lace runners together to form a sophisticated organic look topped with clustered sandblasted wood branches, lanterns, floral arrangements and candles of varying heights in mercury glass and clear glass.

Rustic lounge furniture was placed on the outer lawn complimented by whimsical market lighting. The event was masterfully coordinated by Coast Catering and perfectly captured by Paul Barnett Photography.

Konica & Vik : Blush Coastal Perfection

This stunning coastal soiree was one of our absolute FAVORITE weddings of the year for a plethora of reasons. We designed everything about this wedding from the linen and chairs to the lighting and layout and are oh-so-proud! We wanted to create a bit of a unique flare within a very traditional and romantic setting.

Konica carried a gorgeous, cascading bouquet of white phalaenopsis orchid stems and Vik matched in a single orchid bloom finished in a clean black satin ribbon wrapping.

Konica chose to wear a custom made modern twist on a traditional Indian sari and chose complimenting pink saris for her bridesmaids. They carried beautiful blush and ivory bouquets with soft blue succulent pops.

The mother of the bride and groom each carried a mini ivory bouquet of spray roses.

San Diego’s beautiful coast was the backdrop for the beautiful Scripps Seaside Forum ceremony. The ceremony took place in between two stunning centerpieces placed atop our glamorous crystal candelabras and ivory pedestals. A whimsical swirling formation was created down the length of the aisle with ivory rose petals.

The fun, unique gift table was created with three sandblasted mazanita branches adorned with dainty ivory orchid blooms and placed within distressed ivory wood boxes.

Glittering with elegance, the reception was created against a beautifully draped backdrop done by the fabulous Concepts Event Design team. A mixture of two centerpiece types were placed atop round and square tables, soaked in candlelight and delicate lace detailing.

Tall crystal candelabras placed atop mirrored surfaces were topped with dripping ivory and soft blush florals filled with hydrangea, roses and orchids. Candlelight of varying heights was placed around the centerpieces and complimented by votives.

Short, square table centerpieces were created using distressed ivory wood framed boxes filled with a flat pave of ivory and blush blooms and tall mercury glass candle holders of varying sizes. A square mirrored top was placed under centerpieces to amplify the candlelight. Our delicate lace runners were placed down the length of the tables.

A white lacquer banquet table with glittering accenting (provided by Concepts Event Design) was used for the the bride and groom topped with multiple long centerpieces and a mirrored runner.

We created a unique outdoor atmosphere with the use of white lounge furniture and hanging chinese lanterns in varying colors. We installed lights in each lantern so the mood became more romantic as the sun went down.

A special thank you to the INCREDIBLY talented Braja Mandala of Mandala Weddings for capturing the day flawlessly!

Floating orchid and crystal strands dripped from the two canopy sides, complimenting the submerged orchid aisle decor. Fresh soft yellow lemons accented the aisle and were placed along the bar and escort card tables. A whimsical swirling formation ran the length of the aisle.

The flower girl held an adorable floral wand. The unique and sophisticated reception was created in soft ivory, grey, and yellow tones. Centerpieces were created in vintage distressed ivory frames, containing pave of china mums, hydrangea, dusty miller, tulips and spray roses. Frames were placed down the length of the single long banquet table atop a clean mirrored runner, amplifying the glowing candlelight from the mercury glass votives and tall trios.

The lounge area was studded with belly bars and cocktail rounds topped with shaped glass vases and floating ivory blooms accented by lemons. The dessert table was topped with a lovely array of sweets, set up and prepared by Alison Patt, of L’Auberge Del Mar. We accented the table with submerged lemons placed inside footed cylinder vases.

As the sun went down, the romance was amplified by the numerous candles placed along the table and the fun market lighting stretched across the terrace. All of the beauty was captured flawlessly by Joshua Aull Photography– thanks for the images!!!
